【Badhai Lo (2025) Hindi Web Series】

Turns out the kids who hoarded pinecones during recess were rebels.

Sequoia and Badhai Lo (2025) Hindi Web SeriesKings Canyon National Parks shared on Facebook a note explaining why the attached stolen pinecone was being returned.

The note reads:

To whom it may concern:

I took a pine cone out of the forest and I wanted to return it. I hope it will be placed near the General Grant tree because that is where I took it.

I am sorry for my decision.

Thank you.

The thief didn't sign the note, but based on the handwriting it might have been written by a child (with the letter-writing etiquette of a business person).

In the Facebook post, the park explains why taking pinecones (and Giant Sequoia cones, which they point out is the proper classification for the scotch-taped object) is against their rules. They write, "It's a tough environment here. The animals need their nibbles and the area needs the seeds and vegetation." 

Here's hoping this little author continues to use their guilty conscience for good.
